| Bottom line | Info unavailable | The newly redesigned MacBook Pro with Retina Display combines an amazing screen with just enough of the
MacBook Air design to feel like a new animal, and to take its place as the best of the current MacBook breed. | While the Retina
MacBook Pro is easily the most desirable 13-inch Mac laptop to date, the high price and lack of discrete graphics make it a tough call versus either the more powerful 15-inch Retina Pro or the more affordable 13-inch Air. | This year's
MacBook Air opts for gradual improvements rather than anything revolutionary, but lowered prices continue to make it the go-to mainstream recommendation for any MacBook owner-to-be. |
